Free Energy News coverage of Global Warming.

Index commenced Jan. 21, 2010; archived back to Oct. 2008

While we used to go along with the general notion, the politicizing of the science and the cooking of the books to create a rallying point for global dictatorship has soured us from participating in the cry -- a trend apparent in this archive.

"About the only clear consistent warming is coming from cooking the books."

  Aquatic Dead Zones Produce Greenhouse Gas 300X More Potent Than CO2 - An article in Science describes how aquatic dead zones — or hypoxic waters — create trouble for more than the organisms that live in the waters. In addition to their low levels of oxygen killing off marine life, they create high levels of Nitrous Oxide which can seep into the atmosphere and add to the greenhouse gas effect.

  CO2 captured in solution while making electricity - M.T. Keshe claims to have come up with an inexpensive method for generating electricity through the capture of CO2 and methane gases in the air while converting them into solution and solid. Imagine generating energy from gobbling up CO2 an CH4, inexpensively; producing O2 as a byproduct. Could this be real? (PESWiki; Dec. 23, 2009) (Comments)
